Old fashioned quality. Love that I can fill the washer with water and know the soap is rinsed out. Had a problem with water being added by weight of clothes in my other washer.....black clothes especially would have white soap marks.....even when I used very little soap. Cabinets are old fashioned looking and could use some updating.

After replacing several other washers in the last ten years ,I opted to try the speed queen top loader. I love this machine. I work construction and get dirty every day. I'm hard on a washer ,lots of really dirty greasy heavy clothing.This machine made my work clothes look bright and clean. I didn't realize how dingy they were until I washed them in my speed queen. It's quick, tackles stains well and is able to rinse all the soap/detergent out. My drain is above my washer and this pump kicks butt, not a drop of water left in the washer. I learned a long time ago to buy the best "tools",then you don't end up replacing them. This machine seems to fit that bill! I only wish I would have known about SPEED QUEEN 10 years ago I would have saved thousands of $dollars, and endless aggravation. I don't mind spending money on quality products, I seek out things that will last. And made in America!!!!!! That's the icing on the cake.

Easy to use with the digital panel display.....no second guessing. Nice big stainless steel drum ...... also made in the USA with steel gearing parts.

Great machines! I have the washer and dryer. Speed Queen is classic...I'll call them the Audrey Hepburn of the laundry world. Growing up, our first automatic washing machine was a Speed Queen in 1961. It was the only one my mother considered. In later years her next machine was not Speed Queen. She always regretted not buying another.

Gas dryer is amaizing, makes me wonder how we did not have this years ago!! Drys fast and clothes are soft and fluffy. Washer is wonderful in cleaning with whiter whites.

The review time spent to find the Speed Queen was well worth it. They may be a slight bit louder than other machines, but well worth the exchange.

This is my 2nd dryer after a 15-yr old mid-level Frigidaire. I am impressed with the size and the quality. My first washer had a tendency to grab buttons due to a gap on the front side of the drum. This likely wore through the years, but I was never that impressed. It is apparent my new Speed Queen is a better design with parts and components that ooze quality and longevity. And then there is the size. Some complain about the filter screen that is not removable. I think it is just a matter of getting use to something different. It is easy to remove the lint and I cannot help but feel it is better to not have this part removable leading to a seam allowing blow-by. My first impression is it felt like a carryover from a commercial-grade product... and that is okay by me. It is not perfect. I would prefer to be able to change the heat temperature with the different cycles that use the dryness sensor. I believe, as is, it leads to better predicted drying times, but I would prefer being able to change this even if the drying time ends up less accurate. It might be a matter of getting use to something new.

From the first time I did a load of towels, I knew this was the best purchase! They came out soft and didn't smell musty like they did from my front loader!

Replaced HE washer & Dryer that was only 2 years old. Which was nothing but trouble from day one. Completely happy with our Speed Queen washer & dryer. Clothes are now clean, smell fresh, and done in less time. Best machines on the market. Plus American Made.

I went on you tube to look at other washer/dryers and under the post everyone was stating that speed queen is the best so I checked out your web page and I read very nice reviews and then I used to location bar to inform me where to buy one

Speed queen was recommended by a repairman, who was working on my 3 year old washer which was a different major brand. Best purchase we have made.
